I don't give 5 stars lightly. I can always find something to criticize. If you want a taste of every album, try this one first. Then when you are hooked, you will be back to buy the rest lol You know how you sit around listening to the classic rock of the 60’s and 70’s for the 30,000th time and you still enjoy it thoroughly and you end up asking yourself “Why don’t they make music like that anymore?” I always wondered why the quality of music back then seemed to have eternal staying power, not just this flash in the pan stuff that gets released so much these days. Well if you are looking for that band, the one that is new but you can still see yourself listening to it in 40 years and asking yourself “Why don’t they make music like this anymore?” then look no further. Waterband is that band. Imagine the influences and styles of everyone great, from Pink Floyd to Led Zeppelin, to the Grateful Dead, to Frank Zappa, to The Rolling Stones, to The Who, to whoever… Now imagine that talent, that musical staying power, that total feeling of I AM ABOUT TO JAM OUT!!! and picture it all rolled up into one new band that just seems to GET IT. That is Waterband. The only thing I do not like about them is that I cannot get all of their music on cd yet! Some of the songs they play in concert are fantastic but not available yet. Get back in the studio guys. I need more! This is the kind of band that makes me wish I was a millionaire so I could start a record company and sign them. They need to be heard by the world.
